    Default The Official Brisbane Test Thread

    O.K. its's on tomorrow so time to get the ball rolling on the first Test thread of the summer.

    Now that Tait's out of the squad, who do we play, Clark or Johnson?

    Please, not Clark again. :mad:
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    No, you wouldn't like that. He's a sportsman with an ego.

    What have you got against Clark? He bowled pretty well in South Africa.

    Cricket is so overrated in the country.

    I'm sorry but I have to say it and this is as inappropriate a place as any - I miss Swervin' Mervin

    Is it just me or is modern cricket lacking in those on field characters?

    I don't like any test players named Clark

    With Watson out Clark will have to play, if Watson plays then I reckon they go for Tait or Johnson, unless its Sydney or Adelaide - then Gorilla gets a go.
    There was a young boy called Wyatt
    Who was awfully quiet
    And then one day
    He faded away
    Because he overused White

    Watson is out and Clarke is filling the no.6.

    Tait is out of the squad. (I wish people would read the posts )

    So the final bowling position is between Clark (no e) and Johnson.

    Maybe they should pick Johnstone.

    If they have trouble finding a replacement then I can fill in. I used to play for NZ so I am pretty good.

    Yes Watson is out, and with Watson out (Tait was let go today) then either Clark (no frickin E) or Johnson will play. My selection is for Clark as a steady stock bowler rather than Tait (who was let go today) or Johnson, both of whom are more tearaway than stock. I made no mention of Clarke (with an E - that was decided last week)


    If Watson was in, then I was saying they wouldn't pick Clark (no frickin E) because they have the luxury of a fifth bowler and I reckon would have gone for either Tait (who wouldn't have been let go today) or Johnson

    Or for the linguistically challenged - One watson out, two clarks in
    There was a young boy called Wyatt
